[petsc-users] Regarding ksp ex42 - Citations

[domenico lahaye]

Thanks Barry. 
I will give it a look. If not before my holidays, than in the second half of August. 
Best wishes. Domenico.

  Took a little more time than I expected but the branch barry/extend-pcmg-galerkin now supports 

PCMGSetGalerkin() and -pc_mg_galerkin now take PC_MG_GALERKIN_BOTH,PC_MG_GALERKIN_PMAT,PC_MG_GALERKIN_MAT, PC_MG_GALERKIN_NONE as arguments instead of PetscBool
This allows computing either mat, or pmat or both via the Galerkin process

so you should be able to provide A and M with KSPSetOperators() and then run with -pc_mg_galerkin both to get both generated on the coarse meshes via the Galekin process.  Note that if you use the additional option -pc_use_amat false it will use only the M for both mat and pmat in the multigrid process (while A is only used for the outer Krylov solver definition of the operator.) For some problems this is actually a better approach.


  Please let me know if you have any difficulties with it.

Effectively you just need to replicate the code that computes the coarse grid "B" matrix to separately compute coarse grid A and B matrices and pass them in to KSPSetOperators.
